How To Get Photograph Emote (Patch 7.18) in Final Fantasy XIV

One of the most delightful aspects of *Final Fantasy XIV*'s social scene is the sheer variety of emotes players can use to interact. This guide shows you how to obtain the charming Photograph emote.

As part of a collaboration with Fujifilm Instax, *Final Fantasy XIV*'s Patch 7.18 introduced a free, unique emote: "Photograph." This emote lets you simulate taking photos anywhere in Eorzea.

Unlike many emotes locked behind quests or purchases, "Photograph" is instantly available in your Emote menu after downloading Patch 7.18. No level or expansion is required.

How to Use the Photograph Emote in FFXIV

To use it, open your Emote menu (under the "Social" tab), find "Photograph" (usually under "General"), and press it. Your character will use a Fujifilm-style camera. Add it to your Favorites for easy access.

While not continuous or suitable for AFK activities, the emote is dynamic, working underwater (like the Ruby Sea) and even while mounted. It’s perfect for creative poses.

Patch 7.18 precedes the larger Patch 7.2 (late March), bringing new dungeons, a return to the Arcadion, Cosmic Exploration, and more.

That's how to get the Photograph emote in *Final Fantasy XIV*. See our other guides, including the *FFXIV* Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event rewards guide.
